Thanks! He most certainly was. Other quick lesson he taught me: I was adopted, but knew about it as early as I can remember. I came home from elementary school one day feeling bad, because some kids were teasing me about being adopted.

Dad said, well, tell them how sorry you are that they weren’t. We got to pick you; their folks were stuck with them.

I did.

Just have to say, based on both stories: your dad is awesome.
